📖 The Story Behind This Dish

The musk ox is a large Arctic animal covered in thick fur; in Greenland it's hunted, and its meat is lean and full of flavor. Homes and restaurants stew it in red wine with onion, carrots, and potatoes as a treat for the long winter.

🌆 Where it's eaten: In a Greenlandic home in winter, with snowfields outside the window, brown stew steams in a big pot.
